1Cognex has provided the forward-looking non-GAAP measures of adjusted EBITDA margin, and adjusted earnings per share (diluted), but cannot, without unreasonable effort, forecast such items to present or provide a reconciliation to corresponding forecasted GAAP measures. These include special items such as reorganization charges, acquisition and integration charges, and amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, all of which are subject to limitations in predictability of timing, ultimate outcome and numerous conditions outside of Cognex’s control. Additionally, these items are outside of Cognex’s normal business operations and not used by management to assess Cognex’s operating results. Cognex believes these limitations would result in a range of projected values so broad as to not be meaningful to investors. For these reasons, Cognex believes that the probable significance of such information is low. Information with respect to special items for certain historical periods is included in the section entitled “Reconciliation of Selected Items From GAAP to Non-GAAP”. In Q3 2025 the GAAP operating margin was 20.9% and GAAP earnings per share (diluted) were $0.10, and in full-year 2025, the GAAP operating margin was 16.3% and GAAP earnings per share (diluted) were $0.68.
Analyst Conference Call and Simultaneous Webcast
Cognex will host a conference call on August 6, 2026, at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time (EDT). The telephone number is (877) 704-4573 or (201) 389-0911 if outside the United States.A real-time audio broadcast of the conference call or an archived recording, together with a slide presentation, will be accessible on the Events & Presentations page of the Cognex Investor website: www.cognex.com/investor.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted gross profit and margin, adjusted operating expense, adjusted operating income and margin, adjusted EBITDA and margin, adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per share of common stock, diluted, adjusted effective tax rate, and free cash flow and free cash flow conversion rate. Cognex defines its non-GAAP metrics as follows:
Adjusted gross profit and margin: Gross margin adjusted for amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, as well as, if applicable, restructuring charges, reorganization charges, acquisition and integration costs and one-time discrete events.Adjusted operating expense: Operating expense adjusted for amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, as well as, if applicable, restructuring charges, reorganization charges, acquisition and integration costs and one-time discrete events.Adjusted operating income and margin: Operating income adjusted for amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, as well as, if applicable, restructuring charges, reorganization charges, acquisition and integration costs and one-time discrete events.Adjusted EBITDA and margin: Operating income adjusted for amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and depreciation, as well as, if applicable, restructuring charges, reorganization charges, acquisition and integration costs and one-time discrete events.Adjusted net income: Net income adjusted for amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, as well as, if applicable, restructuring charges, reorganization charges, acquisition and integration costs, discrete tax items, tax impact on reconciling items and one-time discrete events (such as loss on sale of business).Adjusted earnings per share of common stock, diluted: Adjusted net income divided by diluted weighted average common and common-equivalent shares.Adjusted effective tax rate: Effective tax rate adjusted for discrete tax items and the net impact of the other non-GAAP adjustments.Free cash flow: Cash provided by operating activities less cash for capital expenditures.Free cash flow conversion rate: Free cash flow divided by net income or adjusted net income, as applicable.
Cognex may disclose results on a constant-currency basis as one measure to evaluate its performance and compare results between periods as if the exchange rates had remained constant period-over-period.
Cognex believes these non-GAAP financial measures are helpful because they allow investors to more accurately compare results over multiple periods using the same methodology that management employs in its budgeting process, in its review of operating results, and for forecasting and planning for future periods. Cognex’s definitions may differ from the definitions used by other companies and therefore comparability may be limited. In addition, other companies may not publish these or similar metrics. Furthermore, these measures have certain limitations in that they do not include the impact of certain non-recurring expenses that are reflected in our consolidated statement of operations that are necessary to run our business. Thus, our non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, not as substitutes for, or in isolation from, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Please see the section “Reconciliation of Selected Items from GAAP to Non-GAAP” below for more detailed information regarding non-GAAP financial measures herein, including the items reflected in our adjusted financial metrics and a description of these adjustments.

Description of adjustments:
In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company also provides various non-GAAP measures that incorporate adjustments for the impacts of special items. Adjustments incorporated in the preparation of these non-GAAP measures for the periods presented include the items described below:
Depreciation:
The company incurs expense related to its normal use of property, plant and equipment.
Acquisition and integration costs:
The Company has incurred charges related to the purchase and integration of acquired businesses. During the periods presented, these costs were primarily related to the ongoing integration of Moritex Corporation, which the company acquired in the fourth quarter of 2023.
Amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets:
The Company excludes the amortization of acquired intangible assets from non-GAAP expense and income measures. These items are inconsistent in amount and frequency and are significantly impacted by the timing and size of acquisitions, and include the amortization of customer relationships, completed technologies, and trademarks that originated from prior acquisitions. The largest driver of intangible asset amortization was the acquisition of Moritex Corporation.
Reorganization charges:
The Company has incurred charges related to the reorganization of its employees. During the three-month period ended July 5, 2026, these costs consisted primarily of severance and consulting fees.
Loss on sale of business:
The Company has recognized a pre-tax loss related to the divestiture of its Japan-focused trading business, which includes direct costs associated with the divestiture incurred during the six-month period ended July 5, 2026.
Discrete tax (benefit) expense and tax impact of reconciling items:
Items unrelated to current period ordinary income or (loss) that generally relate to changes in tax laws, adjustments to prior period’s actual liability determined upon filing tax returns, adjustments to previously recorded reserves for uncertain tax positions, establishments and adjustments of valuation allowances, stock based compensation, and adjustments to deferred tax positions.We estimate the tax effect of items identified in the reconciliation by applying the statutory tax rate to the pre-tax amount.

IBM Maximo Application Suite Achieves FedRAMP Moderate Authorization, Expanding Secure Asset Management Options for Federal Agencies
Published
55 minutes agoon
August 5, 2026By
TRM supports federal agencies with IBM Maximo expertise, secure cloud migration guidance, and implementation services for mission-critical asset and facilities management
ALEXANDRIA, Va., Aug. 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — TRM, a leading asset lifecycle management consultancy and IBM Maximo partner, announces support for IBM’s achievement of FedRAMP Moderate Authorization for IBM Maximo Application Suite as a Service for Government. The authorization gives federal agencies a secure, modern SaaS pathway for managing mission-critical assets, facilities, infrastructure, and operational equipment.
Building on IBM Maximo’s FedRAMP Foundation
IBM Maximo cloud solutions have supported FedRAMP-authorized environments since 2019, when IBM Maximo and TRIRIGA achieved FedRAMP authorization for federal cloud use. This latest authorization extends that foundation to IBM Maximo Application Suite as a Service for Government, which includes Maximo Manage with Mobile and Maximo Real Estate and Facilities, with industry capabilities supporting aviation, civil infrastructure, nuclear, transportation, and utilities organizations.
For agencies facing aging infrastructure, deferred maintenance, cybersecurity mandates, and increased pressure to demonstrate accountability for public investments, FedRAMP-authorized MAS SaaS provides a secure path to modernize enterprise asset management while maintaining alignment with federal cloud security requirements.
“FedRAMP authorization for IBM Maximo Application Suite is a significant advancement for federal agencies that need secure, scalable, and modern asset management capabilities,” said Don Omura, CEO of TRM. “TRM is proud to support IBM Maximo clients as they evaluate, migrate to, and adopt secure cloud solutions that improve operational visibility, strengthen compliance, and support mission readiness.”
Why FedRAMP-Authorized SaaS Matters
FedRAMP-authorized SaaS provides greater security assurance than many standard commercial cloud offerings because it requires standardized federal security controls, independent third-party assessment, continuous monitoring, vulnerability management, incident response processes, and documented control transparency. These requirements help reduce cloud adoption risk for organizations managing sensitive, regulated, or mission-critical operations.
While FedRAMP authorization is required for federal agency cloud adoption, FedRAMP-authorized SaaS can also be appropriate for non-government organizations with elevated security, compliance, or operational resilience requirements. Federal contractors, critical infrastructure providers, utilities, transportation organizations, energy companies, manufacturers, and other regulated industries may benefit from a FedRAMP-authorized environment when their risk profile calls for stronger governance, enhanced monitoring, and documented controls.
TRM’s Role in Secure Maximo Modernization
TRM has long supported IBM Maximo clients operating in secure and regulated environments, including ongoing collaboration with IBM on federal cloud Maximo authorization efforts. As agencies and regulated organizations move from legacy environments to IBM Maximo Application Suite as a Service for Government, TRM provides advisory, migration, implementation, integration, training, and ongoing support services to help align technology modernization with asset management strategy, cybersecurity expectations, and long-term sustainment goals.
“Secure modernization is no longer optional for organizations responsible for critical facilities, infrastructure, and operational assets,” said Bruce DeSilva, VP of FedRAMP at TRM. “This milestone gives federal agencies and highly regulated organizations a stronger foundation to advance from traditional enterprise asset management toward more proactive, data-driven asset lifecycle management.”
Planning the Path Forward
Federal agencies, contractors, and regulated organizations evaluating IBM Maximo Application Suite as a Service for Government can contact TRM to assess FedRAMP SaaS readiness, migration requirements, integration considerations, and implementation planning.
About TRM
TRM is a consultancy that elevates asset lifecycle management by combining business process expertise, technology implementation, reliability strategies, and secure cloud solutions. As a strategic IBM Maximo partner, TRM helps federal agencies, utilities, manufacturers, transportation organizations, and other asset-intensive enterprises modernize operations, improve reliability, reduce risk, and achieve measurable performance outcomes.
